I didn't try Ancient at all - yet. So I can't make any reasonable statements. I only know that bonus Power Level is always nice for a Druid. It adds base damage and duration to DoT spells. That has impact.

I played a single class Animist with focus on exactly those spells that the Ancient covers and tried to stack a ton of Power Levels (used Spine of Thicket Green, Nature Godlike and Stones of Power). It worked out great. If I had the Ancient back then I would have used him instead of an Animist. So I guess it fills a niche - for me at least.

If the +1 PL is too low - can't say yet.

I only ask because I am almost done with a mod I have been working on off and on, which is a complete revamp of all the accessible Priest subclasses and without spoiling too much, some of the Priest subclasses get a +2 PL for certain damage types, Decay, Freeze, etc. I don't want to make it all too overpowered though so I was wondering how it fit in with the Ancient and I had exactly the same idea for the Ancient that you had for the Animist so looking forward to that.
